"The Marine Interiors Cruise & Ferry Global Expo offers established players and newcomers alike many interesting incentives in the marine interiors sector," said Christoph Lücke, Project Manager of Marine Interiors Expo at Hamburg Messe und Congress. The Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) regulations often pose a major hurdle for newcomers. A special session on certification issues will give newcomers more insight in a bid to ease market entry. The International Maritime Organization aims to ensure fire protection on board and to certify the lowest possible flammability materials for ship interiors.
The Marine Interiors Cruise & Ferry Global Expo gets underway in Hamburg's exhibition halls from September 6 to 8, 2023 showcasing elegant wood panelling, soft carpeting, sound-insulating windows and doors. Architects, ship designers and suppliers can learn all about the latest design trends in the industry. The focus will also be on special safety regulations on cruise ships in addition to customer needs and sustainability.
